OP I think for a basic color like yours, a local painter should be able to match for around the $300 mark. R&R really isn't that big of a job.

I had mine done when I had the entire bike repainted. I paid the painter $200 to remove/reinstall the inner fairing. It wasn't something I wanted to mess with so the money was irrelevant. An unpainted inner fairing looks so dry and plain in my view.

Paul did mine at Laconia last year. Took about 30 minutes. They could do it blindfolded. Color is a perfect match and is one of the best upgrades I have done to my Ultra. Its the one thing you look at while on the bike besides the road in front of you.

Paul Barber did mine several years ago. A lot of bang for your buck.

I just ordered one from Paul. He shipped immediately and is very easy to work with. Pricing is excellent.

I met Paul in a hotel parking last year while he was on his way to Laconia. $450, and my oem inner fairing and 75 mins later I was on my way back home. Normally takes him 45 mins on an ultra, but mine was longer due to fairing mounted gps and oil temp gauge (which is not plug and play). Perfect match. Great guy and very easy to work with.

Mine got replaced under warranty because it was fading. They charged an extra $400 to put a painted inner fairing on.

Find out when he will be in your area and book an appointment. 20 minutes and we were out the door
I started e mail conversations with Paul almost three months ago about painting my iner fairing on my 2016 road glide. While he was using almost every excuse imaginable about how he hadn't time to test paint the color and yardage yada. Most every week I would check on the progress with no headway then finally he just stop responding. If you can't or don't want to do it just tell me and I will spend my money elsewhere. It wasn't because they were to busy because it was way before all of the shows. As you can tell I am far from impressed. Not sure this is the way I would want my business reputation out there but I will figure out a different rout.

That's the complete opposite experience I had. Do you have a new color or custom color that hasn't been done yet?

..... them phkn road glide inners are waaay more work to take off & then paint/reinstall
.... i had a local painter do both the inner & my bags a couple years ago .... what a difference .... he charged me $400 plus the paint

........ if i ever upgrade to a Rushmore, a painted inner is gonna be one of my 1st mods.
